A Smart Girl's Guide: Worry: How to Feel Less Stressed and Have More Fun

I have a hard time always saying the right things for my daughter as she grows up. All of these books in the series has helped us both so much! We read them together and she goes over it by herself. It has really helped us open up and talk to each other about situation and how to handle them. Our communication skills with each other have gotten better. It has helped her so much learn how to deal with certain decisions. I highly recommend these to every parent that wants an open communication with there daughter but not sure how to go about it!!!

Our 11 year old daughter has been diagnosed with anxiety and this book has been a great companion to therapy. She enjoys the personalized strategies and cute pictures. Being from American Girl helped her “accept” it as being more credible.

These are a good set of books for girls growing up and needing some expert (but not bossy parent) advice. WE have 3 of these now, and whilst my 10YO and 8YO both say they've never read them for fear of admitting a problem, I've found them both secretly absorbed on several occasions. An important parenting thing for me. Sometimes not forcing the issue and providing the assistance is enough.My eldest is a worrier but wold never admit it. Nice to see a book that addresses the causes for this age group, and how to manage or accept things.The content is set out in a plain, well illustrated way that takes you through the problem, why it happens, how to manage it, and ways to cope. Some solid advice provided in a lovely, empathetic way.It wasn't till they arrived and I was perusing that I realised these books were published by American Girl. If you have girls, they are the holy grail of 18 inch dolls. We have the cheaper version in our house BUT importantly that link made sure that my daughters trusted the content that little bit more.

My daughter was struggling because of stress and now she is reading this book and she got much better with controlling her own feelings.
